a Runaway Team.

VIM. Bolts, farmer residing about
five miles south of Lamonte. me,
with an accident this morning, near
Brushy creek bridge, about $3.50
o'clock, which will probably result
fatally. He was on his way 10 Sc
dalia, driving a spirited team TO a
spring wagon, when tw" boys came up
from behind ON horseback, running a
race. His team took fright and COM
menced running.
w. A. Coleman, OF Lamonte, was
ahead of Mr.. Bolts and Jaw the run
away team Coming and before lie
could turn out they ran around him
and into the gutter, where the wagon
overturned, throwing Mr.. Bolts
violently TO the ground on his face.
The wagon turned over him and catch,
ing his clothing dragged him several
yards. The horses soon broke Loose
from the wagon, but were caught by
the boys who caused The accident ami
tied to the fence. Mr.. Coleman Sc.
cured assistance and placed Mr.. Bolts,
apparently dead, and bleeding pro-
fusely from the nose, into Coleman's
wagon. He was brought to Sedalia
and taken to the City hotel. Medical
aid was summoned and the injured
man given needed attention.
Mr.. Bolts is aged about sixty years,
has long been a resident of Pettis

Two Boys i'm Limbo.
Late yesterday afternoon Two East
Sedalis boys, each about IL years of
age, named Charles Coukliu and Jamas
Mulcahy, were arrigned before Jus,
tice Halstead on a charge of burglary.
They were arrested on complaint of
Mrs. z. A. TiIman, who claims that
the boys entered her house white she
was absent and stole a gold watch,
chain and two valuab gold rings.
Justice Halstead placed them under
bonds of 500 each to appear for trial
tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Mulcahy gave bond and CoDklin was
committed to the county Jail. Null
cahy denies having any knowledge of
the crime, while Ccnklin
cOnfesses bis guilt and
states that he was drunk al the
time, also that he committed the crime
alone, and that Malcahy had nothing
whatever to do with it.
COnklin's mother is a respected
woman, and has the sympathy of the
entire community in which she re.
sides. The boy, Charles, seems to be
a stray in the flock and only his
youth will keep him from serving a
term in The pen.

ON THE HUNT.

Prof. Hay, member of the state geologi-
cal board, is busily engaged in taking field
notes for locating gas well for the Wichita
Mining and Investment Company. Prof.
Knapp of Fort Scott, is also working for the
same conclusion They are taking observa-
tons around the city, reaching out nearly
sixteen miles. The contour Of the country is
such as to give but little data TO biologists, 10
matter how great their efforts. This fact,
however, does not by any means place dis
enlargement in the camp, as they viii get all
the data to be found from surface indications
and then decide upon the point at which to
sink well.
The company viii let the contract today for
boring There ere quite a number of bids
submitted. The successful bidder will receive
instructions TO Immediately order the neces-
sary machinery and commence work as soon
as possible.
Prof. Knapp stated last evening that he
considered the indications were favorable for
"A gas find. In fact, the data already gained
We're far more encouraging than in many sec
tons where a desirable flow had been found
He proposes to find gas in the first well. but
If that does not succeed more wells will be
bored The company intends TO make s

look the situation over, called yesterday in
company with j. NJ Allen Sir. Allen 5
firm have been handling Mr.. Ritz's goods
for some time, and he says that there are no
better ia the market. Mr.. Ritz himself saws
that factory here of o capacity Of three to
six thousand cans per day. employing be
tween two and three hundred people, would
be a finely paving investment, but that his
institution is not large enough, hs employ
ing but fifty % one hundred people he
further said that il joint stock company
could lie organized with sufficient stock paid
up TO operase such sized factory as the trade
demanded here, tbs. be would ike to put IN
his CAPITAL and become its manager. He
said that in severs. lines, especially in corn,
beans, tomatoes, apples. etc. there would
bs no better point ths.n Wichita, and ,ia.
the investment would pay beyond question.
We believe be is correct, and the fact that
he makes hrs own factory success is bis

be able 10 establish himself in Cur city.

The Wichita Royal Coffee and Spice mills
gre spreading out with their trade. They
are buying their coffees largely at New Or
leans at which port on some grades they can
do much better than in New York while the
difference in fir light is in favor of New Or
leans. These mills are developing handsOm
trade in Arkansae as for south as Little Rock
and in Missouri to the central part OF the
state Their trade i; also increasing in Colo
RADIO and New Mexico where some merchants
declare that no mills in the United States
give SO good satisfaction. We are of the
opinion that the energy shown by this firm
to extend the trade of Wichita is equalled by
that of no other jobbing interest in our city.

HE TALKED FOR WICHITA"

Some weeks ago a lad came to the city and
announced his name as r. S. Shultz from
Boston. Despite The fact that be exhibited
but little Yankee broeue, he still insisted
that he was Of that stock down his geneolog
ical tree for some generations.
In few days after his arrival he com
menced to rustic real estate end talk fo1
Wichita" He was very sareuine that the
west was great country, and judging from
his conversation one would suppose he would
have shed his life's blood for this glourious
country" No, no, he was not moved by
any selfish motives. He talked Wichita
because he loved the town and his Utmost
soul was completely WRAPPED up in the sub
ject
He played his part to perfection it seem,
| and occasionally sold some real estate AND
| according to custom kept cut the usual com
mission and according to custom again, solo
the property for more than the owner asked
and stuck both surplus and commission il
his pocket. The william still pursued his bus
mess until last Tuesday his acquaintance
noticed that he did n OF put in rushing
appearance" Yesterday morning gentle
man called for the brother Shutz bus he had
not been seen for several hours. That fact
Caused him to open his eyes and a string OF
oaths commenced to roll out on the floor
peil neil. Before he run down in that de-
partment there was 10 little interest mani
tested over such a state of sffairs After the
gentleman got down to plain English he
stated that Mopday evening he bought a
dandy snap of Shultz and paid 81 GOO down
with the agreement that all the papers would
be signed yesterday morning.
The gentleman who was takon in is gener-
ally known to be somewhat of athorouebre red
himself. 1t did not take him long to see his
trap when he heard of Mr.. Shultz's absence

CRYSTAL ICE PLANT.
Ready for Business by the First Of April-COss
VIII be Near $50, COO Process by Which
the Water is CONCEALED
and Purified.

Twenty men were working yesterday at
the Wichita Crystal Ice plant Twelve car
loads OF machinery have arrived and more is
expected in lew days. Most of the machin-
cry is in place, and Master Mechanic Thomas
Dwyer, who is employed by the company
furnishing the machinery, says that he be-
| lieves that the plant will De ready for bust
ness by the first OF April. The original
plans have been enlarged upon to some OK
tent, and the plant will cost near 6o,ooo in
stead of $4,000, as formerly announced.
The additional expense was adjudged wise
step when the company more fully saw the
demand for the product.
The capacity will be near thirty
tons Of ice per day. This amount
has practically already been engaged by the
neighboring towns and the city.
The system by which the ice is made is
rather difficult, for those not familiar with
ice plants to understand. In q rctort thirty
one feet high and near four feet in diamater
| Is placed aqua ammonia through which steam
Is passed distilling the anhydrous gas. The
gas is led to q condenser and is liquified. The
liquid is then conducted to the lower condeI-
Ser and receiver From there it passes to
the refrigerators in vigorous state and at
a temperature forty degrees below zero. 1t
is conducted through the refrIgerators by
means Of pipes which come in close contact
with the water which it is desired
10 change into ice. In freezing the water
the temperature of the vapor is raised and
after passing through the refrigerator is
subjected to process by which it is made
again aqua ammonia and is returned to the
retolt ready for doing its work a second
time
The water used will be drawn from fifteen
two-inch pump points which will be located
near the plant. 1t viii be drawn from the
pumps in four and six inch mains and con-
veyed to a steam heater iberating it of ali
alkai. 1t is then conducted to the boilers
where it is vaporized and passed into con
denser. Leaving the condenser it is run
through a sitter, removing al! mechanical
impurities. 1t is then placed in the Woulds
where it is frozen The moulds are of two
sizes, one shaping block weighing two
hundred pounds and the other Lne hundred
pounds
The ice is removed from the refrigerator
to the cold storage room. The room is sup
piled with pipes through which cold brine is
passed, placing the temperature below zero.

REMAINS OF EX-MAYOR HOPE.

The body of ex-Mayor James G. Hope

move the remains to the old home.
The burial will take place today at 3
